1954 Map of Butte City

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Sacramento River defines the western edge of this landscape, winding past Butte City and its river-adjacent Butte City Cem. This mid-century survey illustrates a complex hydraulic environment dominated by irrigation canals and drainage sloughs, such as Angel Slough and Sanborn Slough, which support both agricultural reclamation and extensive seasonal wetlands. The southern portion of the map is dramatically punctuated by the volcanic rise of the Sutter Buttes, including Peace Valley, providing a sharp contrast to the surrounding alluvial plains.
